The day finally arrived to pick and taste the fruits of our labor!
No one, not even ourselves, anticipated that this day would arrive so quickly.
We picked our first SG strawberries on October 20, 2015, two months earlier than expected.
As our plants are cultivated in water bottles and not regular garden pots, our fruits are very easy to pick from our windows.
Although much smaller than supermarkets strawberries, these alpine fruits more than made up for its size with flavor!
My fellow researchers/gardeners are thrilled to bits!
Summer’s birthday wish was granted!
The children picked their first strawberries.
Strawberries needed to be picked as soon as they are ripe.
They have a strong strawberries candies scent that attracts fruit flies otherwise!
PROUDLY GROWN IN SINGAPORE
PESTICIDES-FREE STRAWBERRIES
Our homegrown SG strawberries tasted like jam with a punch of apricot, very flavorful!
They are so different from supermarkets’ strawberries.
Let’s hope other gardeners can contribute ideas of how to make them grow better, and share their input! 🙂
The strawberries tasted more like jelly beans to me!
